Drinking after surgery

[vg1276 3]

I had my surgery on August 5th and will be going to Vegas on October 10th. I know the friends my husband and I are going with are going to want to party and I would like to be able to at least socially drink. Any suggestions? Anyone out there that drank 2 months post op?

Well I think I had my first glass of wine at 3 months.

It goes to your system quickly. Please make sure you are with people you trust and that you will not be driving at all. Please don't drink more than one cocktail, as you will be surprised how fast the effects come and go. However the drink is still in your system after one drink.

I had a shot of tequila, which I mixed with lots of Water in a water bottle mixed with crystal light flavored margarita mix, it was good and I barely tasted the tequila, I'm 12 weeks out.

Did you get drunk off that one shot?

No, not really, just a few minutes of warmth, but no effect, my husband said I poured 2 shots, but I didn't get drunk, I even lost 1 lbs, lol

One glass of white wine and I was almost falling down drunk! It's amazing how fast it hits the system...... Lol

I'm about 2 1/2 months out and I have had a glass of wine for my birthday and when I went out the girls one day. Just sip on it because it will hit you fast if you don't. I also sipped Water with it the first time and I didn't really feel as drunk. Lol

When you drink wine do you run the risk of dumping?
